The 80s - James Spader #22: James Is One of a Kind!!

**Donna K.** · 07-02-2019, 07:59 AM

Biography
Actor James Spader was known for playing intriguing deviants in a number of acclaimed independent films in the 1980s and 1990s before his magic touch with morally ambiguous outsiders found its way to television on “Boston Legal” (ABC, 2004- ). Spader began his career playing a series of unsympathetic yuppie types in the era of the shamelessly wealthy, then put films like “Wall Street” (1987) and “Less Than Zero” (1987) behind him in favor of exploring man’s attraction to danger – often sexual – in acclaimed indie films like “sex, lies, and videotape” (1989), “Crash” (1996) and “Secretary” (2002). In 2003, he was handpicked to shake things up on David E. Kelley’s stale law drama, “The Practice” (ABC, 1997-2004), before being given a starring role as lawyer of questionable ethics in the spin-off, “Boston Legal,” for which he earned several Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. full bio
